Tri-triangles

Three different triangles fitting nicely together. This one came directly out of the wonderful book Tilings and Patterns (p. 74). There are a few ones similar to this one as well that I may put up there. I'm more a fan of the patterns that come from polygon loops that are combined rather than ones like this. Still these ones are easily described since they have only one local neighbourhood. The PolygonR&D program has only one subprogram that describes the path from a purple triangle it's neighbour. The smallest triangles are not drawn since they are white.
